There seems to be a common theme going in our industry this year. If you have premium, one and two word dot coms you are making a killing. If you have longer and lesser quality names it’s been rough. And it’s going to get rougher. Undoubtedly the new gTLDs and lack of parking revenue have all but nullified the value of three and four word exact match domains. I was talking to a friend and said the value of names like screwdriver sets.com (no offense to the owner, have taken a plunge. Unless it’s a major category or product, companies no longer have the desire to own this type of domain. It’s eternally stuck in the domainer to domainer sales loop. Short, dictionary words that are potential brands are the leaders and the names that will lead sales. It’s my opinion but the weekly sales list back my opinion. NOW taking names for Friday’s BOOK of 10. Early Bird Special for MONDAY Only 2 names on the list for $30. Normally $25 per name. Get you auction or domain for sale in front of 18,000 people.

I feel bad for the guy that owns screwdriversets. Hopefully that is not Garry Chernoff best domain.
Meyer,
I feel bad now too. I really do like screwdrivers though. I lose them all the time
I should have mentioned this for the newbie and the casual domainer. Garry Chernoff has been in the industry over 18? yrs. Extremely well respected. And, he was Frank Schilling’s mentor. So, screwdriversets is not his best domain. 🙂
Shane:
I can concur; unlike most, I try not to sell my names but rather ‘collect’ them. However, lately people are wanting them more than I do so I have gotten a few sales. At 500+ names I am getting on average two request a day from a simple parked inquire here link from GoDaddy.
